With a digital thread, the right data is delivered to the right people at the right time and in the right context across the value chain.
Current report
Our business is based on a subscription model, with 93% of our 2024 revenue being recurring in nature. Compared to a perpetual license model, our subscription model naturally drives higher customer engagement and retention and provides better business predictability. This, in turn, enables us to make steady and sustained investments to pursue mid-to-long-term growth opportunities.
Current report
Revenue grew 3% (2% constant currency) to $565 million in Q1'25 compared to Q1'24, driven by growth in support and cloud services revenue, offset by lower on-premises license revenue due to the timing and value of new and renewal contracts. Under ASC 606, the timing of revenue recognition for on-premises subscription revenue can vary significantly, impacting reported revenue and growth rates. Operating income was down 3% compared to Q1'24, mainly due to costs related to our go-to-market realignment. Diluted earnings per share grew 23% to $0.68 in Q1'25 compared to Q1'24, primarily driven by lower interest expense and a non-cash tax benefit associated with the release of a tax reserve related to prior years in a foreign jurisdiction.
Current report
If Q1'25 reported results were converted into U.S. Dollars using the rates in effect as of September 30, 2024, ARR would have been higher by $71 million, revenue would have been higher by $7 million, and expenses would have been higher by $3 million. If Q1'24 reported results were converted into U.S. Dollars using the rates in effect as of September 30, 2024, ARR would have been higher by $2 million, revenue would have been higher by $10 million, and expenses would have been higher by $4 million.
Current report
Software revenue growth in Q1'25 compared to Q1'24 was driven by growth in CAD in the Americas.
Current report
License revenue decreased in Q1'25, reflecting lower PLM revenue in the Americas and Europe, partially offset by growth in CAD in the Americas. License revenue was impacted primarily by a lower volume and value of large contracts renewing in Q1'25 compared to Q1'24.
Current report
PLMsoftware revenue growth in Q1'25 was driven by revenue growth in Asia Pacific and the Americas.
Current report
Professional services gross margin decreased in Q1'25 compared to Q1'24, primarily due to higher compensation costs, driven by severance related to our go-to-market realignment.
Current report
a $4 million decrease in stock-based compensation, driven in part by the Q1'24 acceleration of expense on equity grants held by our former chief executive officer (which is included in General and administrative).
Current report
In FY’24, we requested IRS consent for an accounting method change in the treatment of certain deductions. If we do not receive this consent, our future tax payments could be higher than currently estimated.

Previous report
We generate revenue through the sale of subscriptions, which include term-based on-premises software licenses and related support, Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), and hosting services; perpetual licenses; support for perpetual licenses; and professional services (consulting, implementation, and training).
Previous report
Revenue decreased 4% (3% constant currency) to $519 million in Q3'24 compared to Q3'23, driven by lower on-premises subscription license revenue due to shorter contract durations and an increase in the proportion of ratably recognized SaaS contracts compared to on-premises subscription contracts. Diluted earnings per share grew 11% to $0.57 in Q3'24 compared to Q3'23, primarily driven by a non-cash tax benefit associated with the effects of IRS procedural guidance issued in May 2024 and a reduction in total expenses, partially offset by lower revenue.
Previous report
Software revenue decreased in Q3'24 compared to Q3'23, primarily driven by lower license revenue in Q3'24 due to shorter contract durations and an increase in the proportion of ratably recognized SaaS contracts compared to on-premises subscription contracts. Software revenue growth in the first nine months of FY'24 was driven by PLM, which included the contribution from ServiceMax (acquired in early Q2'23), and CAD.
Previous report
License revenue growth was relatively flat in the first nine months of FY'24, reflecting CAD and PLM growth in Europe and Asia Pacific, offset by lower license revenue in the Americas, particularly in PLM.
Previous report
PLMsoftware revenue decreased in Q3'24, driven by lower revenue in the Americas. PLM software revenue growth in the first nine months of FY’24 was driven by the contribution from ServiceMax (acquired in early Q2’23) and growth in Europe. Year-over-year PLM software revenue growth for the first nine months of FY'24 excluding Q1'24 ServiceMax revenue would have been 6% (5% constant currency).
Previous report
Professional services gross margin decreased in first nine months of FY'24 compared to the corresponding FY'23 period, primarily due to lower margins on business subcontracted to partners. Professional services gross margin improved in Q3'24 compared to Q3'23 due to lower outside services and compensation costs. The decreases in professional services revenue and costs are due to our continued execution on our strategy of leveraging partners to deliver services rather than contracting to deliver services ourselves.
Previous report
a $7 million decrease in marketing expense, primarily due to not holding our LiveWorx event in FY'24; and
Previous report
a $6 million decrease in stock-based compensation, driven by Q3'24 changes in estimated attainment for performance-based grants and less expense for grants related to the ServiceMax acquisition;
Previous report
Operating expenses in the first nine months of FY'24 increased compared to the first nine months of FY'23, due to the following:
Previous report
a $44 million increase in compensation expense driven by our Q2'23 acquisition of ServiceMax, higher headcount, and annual salary increases in Q3'23;
Previous report
a $13 million increase in stock-based compensation expense, driven in part by acceleration of equity grants held by our former CEO upon his separation from service in Q2'24 (which expense is included in General and administrative), as well as the impact of an FY'24 change in eligibility for continued vesting upon retirement for a subset of prospective equity grants; and
Previous report
partially offset by:
Previous report
a $16 million decrease in acquisition and transaction-related costs, largely driven by costs associated with our Q2'23 acquisition of ServiceMax; and
Previous report
a $10 million decrease in marketing expense, primarily due to not holding our LiveWorx event in FY'24.

Statements in this document that are not historic facts, including statements about our future financial and growth expectations and potential stock repurchases, are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. These risks include: the macroeconomic and/or global manufacturing climates may not improve or may deteriorate due to, among other factors, high interest rates or increases in interest rates and inflation, volatile foreign exchange rates and the relative strength of the U.S. dollar, tightening of credit standards and availability, the effects of the conflicts between Russia and Ukraine and in the Middle East, and growing tensions with China, any of which could cause customers to delay or reduce purchases of new software, reduce the number of subscriptions they carry, or delay payments to us, which would adversely affect ARR and/or our financial results, including cash flow; our investments in our solutions may not drive expansion of those solutions and/or generate the ARR and/or cash flow we expect if customers are slower to adopt those solutions than we expect or if they adopt competing solutions; other uses of cash or our credit facility limits could limit or preclude the return of 50% of free cash flow to shareholders via share repurchases; and foreign exchange rates may differ materially from those we expect. In addition, our assumptions concerning our future GAAP and non-GAAP effective income tax rates are based on estimates and other factors that could change, including changes to tax laws in the U.S. and other countries and the geographic mix of our revenue, expenses, and profits. Other risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected are described below throughout or referenced in Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factorsof this report.

Statements in this document that are not historic facts, including statements about our future financial and growth expectations, potential stock repurchases, and the expected effect of our go-to-market realignment, are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. These risks include: the macroeconomic and/or global manufacturing climates may not improve or may deteriorate due to, among other factors, the effects of recently imposed import tariffs and threats of additional import tariffs, volatile foreign exchange rates, high interest rates or increases in interest rates and inflation, tightening of credit standards and availability, geopolitical uncertainty, including the effects of the conflicts between Russia and Ukraine and in the Middle East, and tensions with China, any of which could cause customers to delay or reduce purchases of new software, reduce the number of subscriptions they carry, or delay payments to us, which would adversely affect ARR and/or our financial results and cash flow; our investments in our software solutions may not drive expansion of those solutions and/or generate the ARR and/or cash flow we expect if customers are slower to adopt those solutions than we expect or if they adopt competing solutions; our go-to-market realignment and other strategic initiatives to improve organizational and operational efficiency may not do so when or as we expect and may disrupt our business to a greater extent than we expect; other uses of cash or our credit facility limits could limit or preclude the return of 50% of free cash flow to shareholders via share repurchases, or could change the amount and timing of any share repurchases; and foreign exchange rates may differ materially from those we expect.

Previous wording
Despite the overall demand environment, which has been sluggish for many quarters now, ARR grew 10% (12% constant currency) to $2.13 billion as of the end of Q3’24 compared to Q3’23.
Current wording
Despite the overall demand environment, which has been challenging for a couple of years now and continues to adversely affect close rates, ARR grew 7% (11% constant currency) to $2.21 billion as of the end of Q1’25 compared to Q1’24.
Previous wording
Cash provided by operating activities grew 26% to $214 million in Q3'24 compared to Q3'23. Free cash flow grew 29% to $212 million in Q3'24 compared to Q3'23.
Current wording
Cash provided by operating activities grew 27% to $238 million in Q1'25 compared to Q1'24. Free cash flow grew 29% to $236 million in Q1'25 compared to Q1'24. Our cash flow growth is attributable to resilient top-line growth due to our subscription business model and operational discipline. Interest payments were $29 million lower in Q1'25 compared to Q1'24, mainly due to a Q1'24 payment of $30 million of imputed interest on a deferred acquisition payment associated with our 2023 acquisition of ServiceMax. In Q1'25, we made payments of $11 million, primarily for severance and consulting fees, associated with realigning our go-to-market organization.
Previous wording
Under ASC 606, the volume, mix, and duration of contract types (support, SaaS, on-premises subscription) starting or renewing in any given period can have a material impact on revenue in the period, and as a result can impact the comparability of reported revenue period over period. We recognize revenue for the license portion of on-premises subscription contracts up front when we deliver the licenses to the customer, typically on the start date, and we recognize revenue on the support portion of on-premises subscription contracts and stand-alone support contracts ratably over the term. We continue to convert existing support contracts to on-premises subscriptions, resulting in a shift to up-front recognition of on-premises subscription license revenue in the period converted compared to ratable recognition for a perpetual support contract. Revenue from our cloud services (primarily SaaS) contracts is recognized ratably. We expect that over time a higher portion of our revenue will be recognized ratably as we expand our SaaS offerings, as we release additional cloud functionality into our products, and as customers migrate from on-premises subscriptions to SaaS. Given the different mix, duration and volume of new and renewing contracts in any period, year-over-year or sequential revenue can vary significantly.

Cost of support and cloud services revenue in the first nine months of FY’24 grew at a similar rate to revenue, driven by higher intangible amortization expense, compensation expense, and royalty expense. Cost of support and cloud services revenue in Q3'24 remained consistent with Q3'23.
Current wording

Previous wording
Interest expense in both FY'23 and FY'24 includes interest on our revolving credit facility, term loan, and our senior notes due 2025 and 2028. Interest expense in FY'23 also included interest on a deferred acquisition payment associated with the ServiceMax acquisition. Interest expense decreased in Q3'24 compared to Q3'23 primarily due to lower aggregate debt and deferred acquisition payments. The increase in interest expense in the first nine months of FY'24 compared to the first nine months of FY'23 was driven by higher interest rates, offset by lower aggregate debt and deferred acquisition payments.
Current wording
Interest expense in both Q1'25 and Q1'24 includes interest on our revolving credit facility, term loan, and our senior notes due 2025 and 2028. Interest expense decreased in Q1'25 compared to Q1'24 due to lower aggregate debt.

Other income (expense), net was lower in Q3'24 compared to Q3'23, driven by foreign currency exchange losses. Other income (expense), net was lower in the first nine months of FY'24 compared to the first nine months of FY'23 due to a $2.0 million impairment loss related to an available-for-sale debt security classified as a Level 3 investment, offset by lower foreign exchange losses.
Current wording
Other income (expense), net was lower in Q1'25 compared to Q1'24, driven by foreign currency exchange losses.
Previous wording
The effective tax rate for Q3'24 and the first nine months of FY'24 was lower than the effective tax rate for the corresponding prior-year periods primarily due to changes in the geographic mix of income before taxes and the non-cash effects of IRS procedural guidance requiring IRS consent for certain previously automatic changes of accounting method. The IRS procedural guidance change significantly increased our estimated taxable income for 2024, resulting in an increase to the estimated tax benefit for the deductions associated with Global Intangible Low-taxed Income and Foreign-derived Intangible Income. The benefit from this change for Q3’24 and the first nine months of FY’24 will reverse in a future fiscal period if we receive IRS consent for a change in the treatment of these deductions. For the first nine months of FY'24, this was offset by a tax expense of $3.6 million related to a tax reserve in a foreign jurisdiction.
Current wording
The effective tax rate for Q1'25 was lower than the effective tax rate for the corresponding prior-year period primarily due to changes in the geographic mix of income before taxes. Additionally, for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, rates were impacted by a benefit of $5.4 million and an expense of $3.6 million, respectively, associated with the impact of tax reserves related to prior years in foreign jurisdictions.
Previous wording
Due to the stability of our subscription model and consistency of annual, up-front billing, we aim to maintain a low cash balance. A significant portion of our cash is generated and held outside the U.S. As of June 30, 2024, we had cash and cash equivalents of $37.1 million in the U.S., $99.5 million in Europe, $88.5 million in Asia Pacific (including India) and $22.6 million in other countries. We have substantial cash requirements in the U.S. but believe that the combination of our existing U.S. cash and cash equivalents, cash available under our revolving credit facility, future U.S. operating cash flows, and our ability to repatriate cash to the U.S. will be sufficient to meet our ongoing U.S. operating expenses and known capital requirements.
Current wording

A significant portion of our cash is generated and held outside the U.S. As of December 31, 2024, we had cash and cash equivalents of $12.7 million in the U.S., $78.7 million in Europe, $88.2 million in Asia Pacific (including India) and $16.7 million in other countries. We have substantial cash requirements in the U.S. but believe that the combination of our existing U.S. cash and cash equivalents, cash available under our revolving credit facility, future U.S. operating cash flows, and our ability to repatriate cash to the U.S. will be sufficient to meet our ongoing U.S. operating expenses and known capital requirements.
Previous wording
Cash provided by operating activities increased $90.8 million in the first nine months of FY'24 compared to the same period in FY'23. The increase was driven by higher collections (including contribution from ServiceMax) and lower vendor disbursements, which were partially offset by higher interest and salary-related payments. Interest payments in the first nine months of FY'24 were approximately $60 million higher than in the prior-year period and include the payment of $30.0 million of imputed interest on the ServiceMax deferred acquisition payment.
Current wording
Cash provided by operating activities increased $51.1 million in Q1'25 compared to Q1'24. Growth was driven by higher collections as well as lower vendor disbursements and interest payments, partially offset by higher tax payments and payments related to our go-to-market realignment. Interest payments were $29.4 million lower in Q1'25 compared to Q1'24 due to the Q1'24 payment of $30.0 million of imputed interest on a deferred acquisition payment associated with our FY'23 acquisition of ServiceMax.
